Help please, our windscreen wipers won't turn off!!!!
Any ideas what it could be, either the switch or is there a relay somewhere?
Thanks Steve

From previous posts I don't think the wipers have a relay .. just the steering column stalk / switch ..

There is only the control module on the stalk, no other devices just straight out to the Wipers themselves.

what age is the bongo and does it have an air bag, i dont think they are different but george sells the column and the 2 stalks and the airbag complete, if its not an airbag model he may split one, if you have trouble give me a shout. i have one.

It could of course be a faulty parking switch on the wipers themselves that is the problem, i.e. it never turns off the power when the parked position is reached so the wipers keep going! Check the Blue/Yellow (L/Y) wire on the D1-02 connector for continuous +12volts

Or get your garage to do so!
